I think this roster showcases what the landscape in the UFC looks like right now. For the most part, I tried to pick fighters with at least 3 fights in the UFC and winning or even record. Name value also played a factor. For some of the thinner divisions, I tried to be a little more liberal on who to add so divisions weren’t completely lacking. Of course, Flyweight and Women’s Featherweight have very few fighters on the roster now. I only used fighters current under contract with the UFC and did not include legends or retired fighters. I also tried to stick with fighters that have fought more recently, however kept some inactive veterans because they are already made and easier to bring across.

Here is the compromise I'm hoping to see when inevitably 50-100 of these fighters are no longer on the roster when UFC 4 comes out.

If Cris Cyborg goes to Bellator...ok I get it. You don't want to promote her/Bellator through your video game.

But if Lina Lansberg does the same thing can you just leave it alone? Her presence and fighters like her aren't moving the needle either way, so can we just have a big roster please? Like, the biggest possible?
